[dart-misc] Library with native C and JS code

[Steven Roose]

Hi


I would like to create a library for some high-performance calculations by
using optimized C and JS code. I know that many code Dart classes like f.e.
Set and Map, have native implementations depending on the available
platform using native extensions.

Is it possible to do that same thing for a third-party package? Is there
any documentation on how to do this?


Many thanks

Hi,

With a small risk of stating the obvious, I sorry if that is the case, but
have you seen this article:

https://www.dartlang.org/articles/native-extensions-for-standalone-dart-vm/

A part for that I don't know too much about native extensions. I'm not sure
if you can publish and reuse packages using native extensions on pub
however, if you have to precompile the C stuff yourself and then package it
in or how to get that part working. If someone could fill in with details
on the publishing part of a library using native extensions that would be
great.

Regards, Robert

Well you can't use JS on the Dart VM so you would need to port that over.
You can use native extensions as Robert mentioned. The only problem there
is that pub never got support to build extensions in a similar manner to
the node-gyp stuff.
